Falmouth could be considered a safe area in the Empire of Britain.
The six years that has passed since the shocking display of stairway from the heavens and the world had seen many changes
England is also one of such places where changes are constant. The World Government guarantees the sovereignty of the United Kingdom when it was first inducted into the list of World Government members.
The royalty of the United Kingdom is also one of the Quorum member of the World Government.
But, the matters of the world changes drastically since then when heroes and villains rises together.
What is constant is always the desire for power
Scotland and Northern Ireland declares independence and the United Kingdom send their Black Knights to show their stance.
There are ten members of the Black Knights and their leader is in Disk Formation level while the other twelve is in Seed Formation.
They reconquered back Northern Ireland and Scotland and then also expand the campaign to take the Republic of Ireland.
They then renamed themselves back to the Empire of Britannia, showing their ambitions.
Most of their dependencies had also seceded and while the Empire of Britannia try to force their claims, the World Government, the Republic and pandemonium will not just sit back and let them do it.
The world is now ruled by strong people, ruled by Gods and Goddesses and while this had set back liberty and freedom, it is also the only way it is possible in this new world order.
Like Death Monarch had always said
'How could a lion bow their heads to sheep? How could the strong kneel toward the weak?' Death Monarch example of ruling the world with strength had also ignite ambition of men with great ambition to rule like he did.
Is it a setback to personal freedom? Yes. Does Death Monarch cares? No.
This is a world with new kind of order.
This is the ages of Gods and myths. Extraordinary men and women ascend to become more than just humans.
Your fate is yours to grasp, if you are brave and strong enough.
This is an era where the strong rules. This is an era where Gods walks among mortals.
And as such how could Gods be constrained by the opinion of the many, the suppression of the weak majority where they themselves could solve the world problem with one wave of their hands?
And the royal family of Britannia understand this new fact easily.
In this new world, there is no talk about diplomacy unless you are in an equal playing field.
Might makes right.
And where they used to have some decorum and some hypocritical discussion on a round table to hide this unchanged truth, nowadays, it is open and aboveboard.
Death Monarch commands the heroes of the world and everyone listen to him is simply because he is the strongest man in the world.
He only sigh at the changing matters of the world.
His eyes see further than that. He enjoyed his day today in the coast.
He looks around the beaches, explores around in the cave, swimming with the many aquatic forms inside the water, enjoying the cool breeze of the sea.
When evening came, he went to a tavern and while he does not need to warm himself, he still likes seeing the flaming wood in the center of the fireplace.
He drinks some beer that have some herbs that allows intoxication but apparently his body is now too strong that he no longer could get drunk that easily.
Unless it is his own concoction, he would not get drunk
He walks along the trails of the gardens that is spread all around Falmouth and enjoy its beauty. Night came and he now have to leave.
'One day of peace' he muttered silently as he takes one last glance at the thriving village on the coast
'Alas, everything has an end. These past four years had been good to me.
But now that person is returning, so I could not take it slowly anymore' he has a bitter smile on his face and then he pointe his index finger into the empty space in front of him.
Then he brought his finger down and a space rip was produced as ripples of space around the space rips seems to behaved unstably.
The area around him seems to be distorted and appearing like it is spiraling. He then steps inside the space rip.
A zapping sound echoes as he suddenly found the space around him to be spiraling into an infinite vortex.
The feeling could make one stomach churns for first timers. But he had uses it many time, so he felt only a slight dizziness.
He appeared right inside a thick forest with countless trees that reached the clouds.
The moment he came he look at the tress around him. He saw ravens. Thousands of them perched in the branches of the many trees inside this forest
He whistles in a small voice but for some reason his whistle could be heard by all of the ravens. They all turned their head to look toward him.
He laughed
'I guess you all also want to go home, right. This will be the last time so be ready' he said to no one in particular.
Then he pointed his finger forward. The ravens followed his finger and surges toward the area where he pointed.
A black cloud descended and fills the entire forest. The sound of the flapping of wing sounds like a symphony of death
They are charging toward an area where it is filled with blob-like creatures that floats around and wander the forest.
The eyes of the ravens turn green and their body is shrouded with green aura mixed with black.
It enables them to attack the dark blob creature, pecking them and eating them. They finish them in less than a second, like a locust that come to eat each plants that exist in front of their eyes.
The dark blob creatures dissipated into the ground, like a fertilizer nourishing the ground.
He knew that after a few hours, these dark blobs will once again appear.
The raven then flew toward the branches of the many trees and stand there, like a sentinel that guards these land of darkness.
Smiling, he walks forward without any interruptions.
He had been coming here for four years. If he did not have countermeasures for these dark lobs that roamed around inside this forest, how could he leisurely come here every year.
He no longer had to do so many preparations just to come here.
He sighed.
'She could have at least parted with some of her talisman to help this old friend' and he shakes his head.
Like always, he always come here at night. He could see the beautiful glowing light in the distance.
It is always beautiful when he comes at night' he thought
He is in Wiltshire and he is now about to enter one of the Forbidden Zone in the world.
The dark aura and the dark blob creatures that hovers and roams the forest that have sprouted out around what used to be a clearing is reason enough for people not to come near this area.
Not to mention the many monster lair all around here.
And the area of that forbidden zone is none other than the famous Stonehenge.
Even after six years, it is still a forbidden zone. The other one that he is wary of is the Forbidden Zone in the middle of the Sahara.
it has an unknown Golden Pyramid that attract monsters of all kinds.
And it floats.
A gigantic pyramid that floats a few meters from the bottom of the land. The land around the pyramid is full of green tress, long flowing rivers and rain always fall down around it.
But there are too many monster there for it to be inhabitable.
He shakes his head and focus his mind.
The closer he came to his objective, the more his mind wander.
Or maybe, because of his method, his mind become more cluttered and more distracted he thought to himself.
Hah' he sighed. No one could understand his hardship.
Everyone wanted to plot against him and that is fine. Because to him, their plots and scheme look like child play. But, he is now playing the game of his life.
It will determine the creation and destruction of the entire Omniverse.
So it could be understood how he could view those people who schemes and plots against him as childish, immature and counterproductive.
He walks forward as the sound of the ravens slowly no longer could be heard.
All the dark blob in his path had already been eradicated and now he could see clearly, the ring of the Stonehenge that covers a large swath of area, glowing brightly
The standing stones even after four years under her care is still standing tall. The glowing blue light in the distance has become closer.
He did not rush; his heart is not anxious to meet her. Maybe, because it will be the last time he could see her like that, he wishes time would go slower.
He saw the empty area and he waved his hand. This is the formation he always had to break each time he came here.
It is not accurate to say it is a formation that he breaks. It is more like he circumvents it.
After all, if every time he came he break her formation, she might be annoyed enough that she would spare no expense to keep him out
He steps into the circular ring of stones and he look at the tree in the distance with a complicated expression.
'I am sick and tired of looking at that tree' he disdains it. And there were many reason to disdain it.
The tree itself is peculiar. It is a thin tree but it is very tall, its height reached the clouds without its body buckling under the pressure.
Its root is tangled all over and on the branches of the lower part of the tree hang many small fruit like cherries, its skin is like the combination of white and gray.
There is a faint traces of power of Time around the tree
The reason why he hated that tree is because it reminds him of a certain incident.
The incident of course has not yet happens. But the closer Death Monarch is coming home, the closer he felt in his heart, that Death Monarch will be led here.
And what will lead him here is still his suspicion, his heart and his mind.
That is what will lead him here.
'This is where it would happen.' He felt sad because he knows two people would suffer that day.
Then he smiles looking at the woman sitting underneath the shade of the tree. The woman smiles at him and it is clear she has been waiting for him
'It has been a year' he thought to himself. And he smiles at he
